Just a quick question... has anyone ever seen a RADIUS request/response containing a vendor-specific attribute with vendor 0, attribute 0? That's not an IANA packet, is it? I mean... IANA would just be non-VSA.

Nope. I haven't seen it, and it's not in any standard.

Is this a possible misconfiguration somewhere?

Only if you go out of your way to create a vendor dictionary with vendor ID 0, and then an attribute 0, and then manually add it to the configuration. If that attribute is coming from a NAS, then the NAS is broken. FreeRADIUS may make mistakes internally, it doesn't create bad RADIUS packets. Alan DeKok.
